    It is not so funny and indifferent if the one victim is your child, brother, sister etc. The example is young girl that lost her life on Tuesday. She was someone daughter, friend, perhaps to most of us is just the stats but there are many that will be affected profoundly by her tragic loss of life in traffic collision. Unfortunately this will happen I mean collisions, but if we reduce chances of such losses I think it will be worth it.
    I think you should reduce the chances by selling your car.

    I think it would be worth it.

    From a 2019 article...

    A quick analysis of the data shows the following, and, as mentioned, many conclusions are logical:

    The downtown area has the highest concentration of incidents
    compared with the rest of the city,

    36 Street NE has a high number of conflicts

    17 Avenue SW has a high number of collisions, as does 16 Avenue NW

    The conflicts in residential areas aren’t happening on residential roads; they’re happening on the collector routes connecting them.
    And guess which roads aren't changing?

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    It's about the perception of doing something. Not actually doing something. Actually doing something is costly and hard, and doesn't fit the election cycle.

    I know I have said this before.

    I love that the road I live on is staying 50. They put up a sign a few weeks ago. So the road from the entrance to my road is 40 and my road is 50. Good jorb bureaucrats.

    40 km/h on a feeder road in my community now. Fml.
    Escooters and ebikes are now passing me en route to work.
    Was 60km/h when I first moved to the area.
    Kids get fatter and slower so we all need to adjust?

    Ask me how many times I go 40 in residential areas. Nothings changed. Just do whatever you want and be prepared to pay in the unlikely event they radar on them.

    Minus the sticklers that do go 40 and the food delivery guys parking wherever the car stops.

    That's their entire plan. Make driving more and more of an inconvenience. Climate emergency.

    Ours changed yesterday too. Same road, or blitz? Funny how they put up 50 signs when the new law came in and now changed them to redundant 40 signs. Tax money well spent.

    Are you guys in Lakeview? We had the same thing here. I guess someone on the community association complained to the city that 50 was too fast so they changed back to 40.

    Yes indeed, maybe seen you at Bella.

    Hopefully 66th and 37th don't follow suit.

    Hmm I don't think so as I don't tend to eat in at Bella but maybe see you around the community at some point.
